Popular singer Ayra Starr has addressed the comparisons between herself and South African artist Tyla, following their nominations for Best African Music Performance at the 66th Grammys, where Tyla won the award.
In her first interview with BBC Radio 1 Xtra, Ayra Starr emphasized that these comparisons won’t affect her friendship with Tyla, whom she fondly referred to as her “homegirl” and “G.”
She said, “Tyla is my homegirl, that’s my G. That doesn’t bother me at all. I don’t care about all of that. Less noise, more music.”
Ayra highlighted the importance of unity, saying, “Let’s support each other, like, why not, like afrobeats and African music is about to take over the world and we have to come together to be able to do that. There’s no need for comparisons.”
